Update on Federal Fracking Rules on Federal Land

Republican government officials again asked President Obama to withdraw rules proposed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that would regulate hydraulic fracturing on federal U.S. and Indian lands.

Last week, the U.S. Department of the Interior said it would delay finalizing hydraulic fracturing rules on public lands to allow for more time to address public comments on the proposed rule.

Finalization of the rule has now been pushed back to 2013, the spokesperson said.

I don't think I've seen a worse game played by a team -- at least not recently. The New York Jets tonight -- five turnovers; numerous opportunities to come back and win. Interceptions and then a fumble in the last minute just 25 yards from a winning score. Knocked out of the playoffs; two years in a row not going to the playoffs.
